📉 Job Openings Are Nowhere Near Where They Should Be — and QQQ Is Laughing in Their Face
If you map the post-GFC job-growth trend from the 2009 bottom, we should be sitting at **11 million job openings** today. Even if you throw out the 2022 spike as a COVID distortion, we’re still at **just 7 million**.
That’s a **massive shortfall** — and nowhere close to a healthy labor market.
Meanwhile, QQQ has historically **tracked** job openings…
but this time it’s **completely detached** and gone **vertical** instead.
You can argue feelings, vibes, narratives, bar-stool opinions — but the **data** is screaming one thing:
**We are in a bubble.** Like it or not.
I can only show you the evidence. What you choose to do with it is your business.
But here’s my advice, blunt and simple: GTFO and STFO No Matter where prices go! . Nobody is forcing you to play hero at the top of a cycle, trying to cosplay Warren Buffett for a week.
Most of you are under 40.
Meaning you were maybe 20–23 years old during the last real recession and bear market.
You have *no idea* how fast you can lose money when the trend truly dies.
You’ve spent 17 straight years being trained to “Buy The Dip,”
as if markets only go one direction — up.
That’s not your fault…
But you’re about to learn what a real cycle feels like.
And it’ll be **sooner, not later.**
When the cracks appear, you’ll start doubling down…
rotating into new “opportunities”…
trying to pick bottoms…
revenge trading…
chasing cute stories…
Repeating the same lines every bull market teaches:
“Money on the sidelines,”
“This is the bottom.”
“It’s oversold,”
“Time to load up,”
“You have to be in for the bad to enjoy the good.”
All of it is designed to **soften your fear** and **trigger your greed** right before the trapdoor opens.
Stay sharp. The data doesn’t lie — people do.
Sorry, but it has to be said by somebody!
